Re: Not setting 'Keep past HTML reports' on a job that runs concurrently can cause java.io.IOException: Unable to delete <file>

I have the same problem, when the same job is ran concurrently on different slaves.

At the end of the job, if two of them try to archive the generated HTML report, one of them fail because of this error.

We are using this plugin to publish HTML reports containing screenshots of integration tests, that are concurrently ran on multiple machines.

If I check the option to keep old reports, all HTML files seem to be merged in a GIANT file (becoming unreadable). If I uncheck the option, it randomly fails some builds because of this error.

Richard Bywater resolved as Incomplete

Hi - this issue has been around and not touched for a year or more. In an effort to try and focus on issues which are still present, I am resolving these issues for now.

If you feel that the issue is still present, please feel free to re-open / comment. I'll be closing off any issues that haven't had any re-opening or comments by the end of the month.

Thanks for reporting these issues - hopefully you are still using HTML Publisher and its working for you but, if not, let me know so that I can focus on issues that are causing you problems today

Re: Not setting 'Keep past HTML reports' on a job that runs concurrently can cause java.io.IOException: Unable to delete <file>

It's still a valid issue however it's very low priority so I'm not re-opening. I have a project where two jobs typically get triggered when a Pull Request is created. One for the branch and one for the Pull Request. That can cause one to fail due to this lockup. I've only seen it happen twice (so it's probably under 1% chance) and stopping that double build happening has meant it hasn't happened since.
